I'll probably post a rough demo of this later on, but for now here are the lyrics. Hope you enjoy :)
Verse 1
I've been howling on your doorstep
Crying out to let me in
You never open up
Just shoo me back to where I've been
Pre/Ch
Well I've been hungry
Feels like there's claws inside of me
This cruel starvation
It won't let up, won't let me be
Chorus
Oooh, it drags me down like gravity
Oooh, what more do you want from me
Verse 2
I've been tapping on your windows
But it's like you're never home
I want your attention
And you just want to be alone
Pre/Ch
But I've been hungry
Feels like there's claws inside of me
Your sweet salvation
Could fill this hole, could set me free
Chorus
Oooh, you drag me down like gravity
Oooh, what more do you want from me
x2
Bridge
Please show me mercy
Let me lay here at your feet
I'll let you hurt me
Honey, you can make me bleed
Oh show me mercy
I've been begging for release
Just roll me over
And tear me open with your teeth
Chorus/Outro
Oooh, and drag me down like gravity
Oooh, take what you want from me
x2
Oooh, just drag me down like gravity
Oooh, take what is left of me

I’m intrigued! The feeling is very relatable. I just keep getting stuck on “gravity” as the hook, when the lyrics evoke more of a wolfish, fantasy-type figure; if it were me, I’d tweak the lyrics to reference “gravity” (weight, pull, orbit, etc) so that it doesn’t seem so left-field when the chorus comes. But that’s just where my brain goes. I’m excited to hear it!
